H. Upmann Fumas

A bargain bundle from one of the oldest and most respected brands in the biz, it would be hard to find a better deal on scrumptious cigars than these H. Upmann Fumas. Not that you'd want to search any further after tasting one. Where most fumas stogies are satisfied with only hinting at what the mixed-filler tobaccos inside could have become, the blenders at the Tabacalera y Garcia factory have concocted a bold recipe of various Nicaraguan Habanos to create a medium-bodied and amazingly complex profile worthy of the unique Indonesian Besuki-leaf wrapper carefully applied to each sturdy smoke. Decorated with a simple red and gold band, the solidly packed barrel of an H. Upmann Fumas is primed to deliver an explosion of taste directly to your tongue. The aroma of warm spice and aged tobacco wafts from the clipped head as you test the draw, which is open and smooth as should be expected. Opening with a rush of black pepper, the profile soon soothes into a warm mix of coffee, dulce con leche, cedar, and wheat toast. Maintaining a light sweetness from beginning to end, make sure to puff slowly to extend the enjoyment of this cool-burning stick all the way to the nub. As fumas have become more popular and the competition more intense, cigar companies have had to up the quality and packaging of what used to be an easy way to get rid of excess tobacco left over after cutting and rolling. Sitting at the pinnacle of this trend, the affordable H. Upmann Fumas can compete with many long-filler smokes costing at least twice as much. If you've been looking for just the right cigar to fill the gaps in your humidor, this is the right place. And now is the right time.
